If it's Ponticum then just burn it or take it down the Council Recycling

In this case, Yes, I do! We have a large, fairly wild garden but need
something to provide some privacy from the garden uphill of ours. The
embankment between levels is ours, fortunately.

If it's a steep bank it may be too free draining for it, they like a bit of
moisture at the roots. Among other plants that might be considered are Holly
which you can purchase quite cheaply if you go to a hedging specialist.
